## What it is
metasfresh is a free and open-source ERP system for small and mid-sized businesses, covering accounting, CRM, manufacturing, and supply chain processes. It uses a 3-tier architecture with a Java/Spring Boot backend, PostgreSQL, a REST API, and an HTML5/React/Redux web frontend, deployable via Docker or Ubuntu installer.

## Use cases
- run an open-source ERP for my wholesale business
- manage accounting and invoicing without paying for SAP
- track manufacturing and material receipts
- manage sales orders and shipments in one system
- self-host a cloud ERP with Docker
- CRM and supply chain software for a food industry company
- scalable ERP for a mid-sized company

## When to choose
- you need full ERP functionality (accounting, CRM, manufacturing, logistics) as free software
- you want a self-hosted or Docker-deployable ERP with a modern React web UI
- your business is in wholesale, food industry, or trade and needs supply chain automation
- you want weekly releases and an active open-source ERP community

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight invoicing tool rather than a full ERP
- you require a commercially licensed vendor-backed ERP with guaranteed SLAs
- you cannot operate a Java/PostgreSQL/Docker stack
- you need deep customization in a language other than Java
